Thanks for the suggestion, but as i wrote that i had
used the swap size of 70MB and the native size of
900MB. The system then returned with a msg that 'the
total space required for all the packages needed is
more'. I installed on my system with the same specs
and it worked. And also with the same specs RH5.2
installed. Any reason why RH6 returned with the above
msg.
